Destruição atualmente é filiado ao PSOL, ecossocialista, vegano e artista itinerante. É uma etapa bem massa da história, brincadeiras à parte haihaiauuau

"A culinary artist needs genius, inspirition and a dog-free kitchen"
"So you'll settle for one of three, huh? Hee! He-he-he-he-heh!

Destruction starts cooking, and Dream realizes what he must do to continue the request. The writing on this chapter is fluid, but not as poetic as the others. Still, that's a mighty fine doggo there. The best doggo. One I would be happy to own.

Note: Someone should tell Mr. Gaiman, respectfully, that chocolate is toxic to dogs.

Very happy to come back to the mainstream plots surrounding Dream and his family members. Listened to the audio-experience Audible Act 3 which encompasses Volumes 7-8 (Brief Lives and Worlds' End)[1], the Sandman Special #1, and other short stories from Vertigo: Winter's Edge #1 & #3 and Vertigo Preview #1.

Looking forward to more backstories and "day in the lives" for other family members such as Desire, and Despair as we've seen with Dream and Death.

Much better than book 6

O que mais gostei nesta edição, foram os cenários percorridos por Sonho e Delirium.

[Iranoctis · Rating 5 out of 5]

Bei allem Ernst wehen Destruction und Delirium einen so zarten Humor in die sowieso schon wunderschönen Seiten, dass ich sie immer wieder und wieder lesen mag. Einfach großartig.

someone in the comment section said the reason why every piece of art that destruction tried to make would end up to be trash because he is destruction and i can't stop thinking about it

Poor morphius, that must have been hard for him.

9/10

[Aurelie · Rating 5 out of 5]

I think that Dream and Delirium's little road trips are some of my favorite parts of The Sandman this far. In this issue, we finally meet The Progidy!

More delirious fun with Delirium, Dream and Destruction.
